Here's what I went with.

SPOILER


In all, it costs $1,051, but shortened down to $998 total. However, if I used the 1100T, it would have brought it down to $1,049. I just don't see the difference between the two to make the cheaper switch..

Why did you choose a dedicated network card? I don't see the use in those...

It's not a bad rig for $1000.

This was bought from CyberPower, yes? Have they applied any sort of overclocking to it? Some savings may have been in the cards if you went with air-cooling for the CPU, but hey it's your rig.

I'm kind of on the fence whether to have them overclock or switch to air cooling, but because it wen't over the amount of 1,008, I think I can deal without the OC service.

Edit: Found out that I switched two numbers on the card on accident AND I needed to get a higher power supply since the one I wanted is on backorder. facepalm.gif
